Doiveo's suggestion for getting the font colors to behave with JPEG's does (at least for PHP 4.1.2 - GD version 1) stop the problem (that I had) with fonts becoming outlined instead of solid, however the font colors were still incorrect. There is however a much simpler (and faster) solution, just use imageColorClosest instead of imageColorAllocate, e.g: $near_white = imageColorClosest($img, 255,255,255); imageTTFtext($img, 10, 0, 20, 20, $near_white, "font file path", "text to add to JPEG"); For most JPEG's there should be a fairly close matching color to the one you want to use. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.imagecolorallocate.php Edit Note -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+32171 Delete Note -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+32171&report=yes Reject Note -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+32171&report=yes
